Lovin Jiri Fischer 147 Report post Posted March 31, 2010 According to my prone-to-error math skills, if the Wings win the rest of their games, Chicago needs to only win 3 games to win the Central. The Wings are at 93 points right now with 6 games left. If we were to win all of those games, that would put us at 105 points. Chicago is at 99 points with 7 games left. In order for Chicago to get 105 points to tie the Wings (and beat us in the # of wins tie breaker) they only need to win 3 games. Did I do that right?

russianswede919293 95 Report post Posted March 31, 2010 (edited) It's definately possible after tonight. Possible yes...probable no However to see Detroit finish in the top 3 seeds after this drama filled season would be pretty awesome. I suppose we can all hold out hope that the last game of the season is for the division... Edit: IF wings win out...Chicago only needs 6 points in 7 games to clinch...that seems like an epic collapse Edited March 31, 2010 by russianswede919293 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Edit: IF wings win out...Chicago only needs 6 points in 7 games to clinch...that seems like an epic collapse Agreed, it would almost be as sweet as winning the Cup. But I'd rather have the latter. With each passing day it becomes more likely that Detroit can catch up, which I didn't think would be probably a few days ago. I even posted so. But I can sort of see Chicago only winning two or three of their next games. For some reason I thought they only needed to win twice to clinch the Central, but maybe it's three games. Still, though, Detroit has to finish with a twelve game win streak for us steal the Central with Chicago winning 2 or 3. So let's just hope Chicago loses a bunch.

Detroit # 1 Fan 2,204 Report post Posted March 31, 2010 If we didnt suck in OT so much and had even 3 more wins I'd say it was gonna happen. But it's just too hard, I hate Chicago and there struggling but for them to lose the division lead is not gonna happen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
